- If you wanna learn how to record the screen
on your mobile device
maybe you wanna record your game
or maybe you wanna do something cool like this
then you're gonna wanna watch this video
because I'm gonna show you how to do it
on your iPhone and your Android device.
But first let me introduce myself
my name is Dee Nimmin
and you're watching the Master Your Mobile video series
where I help you take your mobile device
and turn it into a pocket size production studio
and so much more.
So for this video I had to make the decision
am I gonna show you how to do it on the iPhone first
or am I gonna show you how to do it on Android?
Well the decision is for no reason
Android.
Now for the Android device we're gonna use DU recorder
or DU Recorder,
it's a free app and thou there are a lot of options
out there to record your screen
it's my personal favorite for Android.
Now DU Recorder also works on iOS
however in my experience on my Android device
there are a lot more controls in DU Recorder
than when you do it on your iOS device.
I don't know why but we can probably blame Apple.
Thanks Apple.
So the first thing you wanna do when you open DU Recorder
is come up here to the options where the four boxes are
top on that and it's gonna present
a whole bunch of options for you up here.
You're gonna get your camera access,
you can go live,
you can edit your video, march videos,
wifi transfer, edit the image, stitch your images together.
This alone is pretty powerful
but we're gonna go all the way to the right to the settings
and we're gonna go down to video resolution
and on this I'm choosing 1080p
that's the highest one that I can record on my device,
and video quality I'm gonna bump that up
as high as possible too.
Now if your phone is laggy
or having a problem recording the video
you might wanna come down and knock it down one or even two
until it records smoothly.
Now this is your frame rate.
I keep mine on 30 frames per second
which should probably cover you
if you're going stream recording.
However if you are a gamer
you might wanna bump up to 60 frames per second
because that's gonna give you a smoother playback.
But we're gonna keep this at 30.
Video orientation I keep on auto
so it doesn't matter which way I flip the phone
is gonna cover it.
Record audio,
now this one says internal audio recording
is not allowed by Android,
however it gives you the option to record.
On my device I can plug in a mike
and I can record audio
while we're doing a screen recording
and I wanna show you how I do that in just a moment.
Moving on down
you can hide the record window when you're recording,
you can shake the phone to start recording,
you can change your countdown,
you can show touches.
So as you're going to screen recording as you touch
it's going to leave a little mark
to show you where you're touching it.
And they have a watermark.
So if you enable the watermark
it's gonna put the DU Recorder watermark on there.
We don't want that
so we're gonna make sure that is turned off.
However you can add your own watermark.
You can add text or add image.
Just go in there and add that
and it will put it on top of whatever you record.
And you can do the same for your live streams.
And it's pretty much we're gonna do on this.
So we're gonna close this down.
Then when we actually want to record
all we have to do is go to this top button and hit record.
And it's gonna say
the DU Recorder will capture everything
that's displayed on your screen.
Now I keep this on and I don't check don't show again
because this is a reminder to me
to put in airplane mode or quite mode
turn off my internet
whatever it's I'm gonna do
so I don't get messages and those get recorded
when I'm trying to record something.
So we're gonna start.
It's gonna give you a countdown
and it's gonna start recording.
So whatever I'm doing here
it's recording everything that I do.
And when I wanna stop I pull down
and I hit stop.
And then it gives me an option on what I wanna do.
I can share it
and go to these options if I wanna share.
I can delete it or I can play it and watch it.
Now if you wanna record your own voice
into your phone while you're recording you can do that.
You're gonna want to plug in a microphone
for the best possible audio quality.
If you don't do that you're just gonna hear
the mike that's built into the phone
and the quality's not so good,
however it does work.
So let's go in and do a little recording
so I can show you how this sounds.
Okay so now the audio is just coming in
trough the live ear microphone
that I have plugged into the top of my phone.
I'm gonna put a link in the description below for that.
So let's see what this looks like and sounds like.
Now one really cool feature that I like with the DU Recorder
is if you're doing reaction videos
or maybe you wanna record gaming
and you wanna put your face on there
I don't know why I keep taping that
you wanna go up here type on the wrench
and turn on the camera feature.
What that's gonna do
is activate the front camera on your phone
you're gonna see right there
you're now seeing my DSLR
so we can enlarge that, right?
And if you turn it it's gonna turn with you, hey.
Now whatever it is I'm gonna record
it's gonna record wherever my screen is.
So we're gonna leave it there,
we're gonna start recording
and as you see it's recording my video
as I move around my phone,
whatever it is that I do
it's gonna record.
When you're gonna close it
you just exit out right there.
Really cool feature
unfortunately it's not available on iOS,
or at least I haven't figured out how to do it yet.
If you do please let me know.
If you're not using the app
or the method that I shared with you today
to record your screen
leave a comment down below
let me know how you are recording your screen,
maybe you have another way, another app,
maybe something that's even better than this.
Leave a comment I will check it out
I'll try to reply to as many as I can
I do appreciate the feedback.
Okay, okay iPhone users.
Thank you so much for being patient
and sitting through that, I do appreciate it.
Now the DU Recorder that I just showed you
for the Android device
will work on your iOS device
but some of the features are not working on my phone.
Maybe you can put it in yours
and maybe they will work on yours I'm not sure
but it wouldn't work on my iPhone 7.
And what we are gonna do today
is we're gonna use the native recorder
that comes with iOS 11.
If you don't have iOS 11
you might wanna think about an upgrade
but make sure you back everything up
before you do an upgrade
just in case something goes wonky in the process.
And for those who do have iOS 11
I'm gonna show you how to put it in,
set it up, as well as set up the DU Recorder
if you wanna have that option to use that as well.
So let's get started.
Okay by default the screed recording
does not come activated in iOS 11,
so you need to go to settings,
then you need to come to control center,
make sure access within apps is activated,
customize controls,
then you wanna scroll down here
until you see screen recording
and you'll see it's gonna add it to right here.
So we're gonna back on out
and now what you'll notice
if you scroll up from the bottom
you're gonna see this little button right down here.
That is your screen recorder
and if you press it do a force press.
You're gonna see it pops up some options down here.
Now these are the other screen recorders
that I have installed in the phone.
You see I have DU Recorder Live installed.
So when you install DU Recorder
this is how you're going to activate it.
So basically you'll go in here
force push and you'll scroll down
and you'll click on DU Recorder Live
and then that's gonna activate the DU Recorder.
However for this one we're gonna do the native recorder
and you'll notice down here they have a microphone audio on.
So you can turn off your audio
but if you wanna record your microphone
you're gonna need that on.
Now if you have the recorder all ready set
and you're not gonna toggle through to chose a different app
all you have to do is swipe up from the bottom
and just hit record and you'll get your countdown
and it's gonna start recording.
So now we've connected the dangle to the microphone
and we're gonna do a screen recording
and test out the mike
so you can hear what it sounds like on your iPhone.
So we're gonna go back up,
we're gonna force press to make sure
camera roll was selected
that's the native screen recorder,
but if you wanted DU it's right there
but understand that DU Recorder on your iPhone
doesn't have the same features as it does on Android.
So we're gonna make sure camera roll is on
and we're gonna make sure the microphone audio is on
which is red,
and then we're gonna hit start recording.
So now you see the countdown
and now we're screen recording.
So we can go in
and you also see it blinking right there
that means it's recording.
So we're gonna go in we can open some things
let's see what's going on on YouTube.
Oh there's Brian G. Johnson
if you're not already go over and subscribe to Brian
if you're interested on how to grow your YouTube channel.
Now I'm not gonna record a game
because I don't wanna deal with a copyright strike
but you can record your voice
as well as the game in your iPhone
and that's pretty cool.
So when you wanna stop
all you have to do is come up to the red bar on the top
and tap that
and then stop it,
and that's how you stop the recording.
Now it's gonna give you this little bubble right here,
you can tap it and it's gonna open it right up
so you can see exactly what it is you just recorded.
And that is how you record the screen
on your Android or iPhone.
Thank you so much for watching I do appreciate it.
